Restarting Eclipse under test [message #1064873]

Hi,
I am using SWTBot to install a plug-in, and then restarting Eclipse. After the restart I want to continue testing (if plugin was correctly installed), but the test restarts and the plug-in is not installed anymore.

Is there any way around this? So I can continue testing after restart.

Thanks Smile

As SWTBot starts inside Eclipse, it's not possible to have a test which
deals with the "Restart" process. When you restart, Eclipse stops, then
your SWTBot launcher stops, and Eclipse restart in its vanilla form,
without your SWTBot test being started.
What you can try instead of a restart is to separate your test suite in
2 pieces: one before restart and one after. You run your "before
restart" suite normally. When it ends, the uitestapplication will close
Eclipse, and then you run your "after restart" suite using the
uitestapplication again.

Hi Mickael,
I tried Using the Restart Functionality With SWTBOT in my Product and Found Some thing unusual, Following is My Test. So Every Time i Run this class File Swtbot is Running the Fist TestCase and Restart Eclipse and Start the Same Testcase again and Again...
It is Not Running the Second TestCase.

@Test
public void opennewSchedule() throws Exception
{
SWTWorkbenchBot bot = new SWTWorkbenchBot();
bot.Click();
bot.menu("File").menu("Restart").click();
}

@Test
public void opennewSchedule2() throws Exception
{
SWTWorkbenchBot bot = new SWTWorkbenchBot();
bot.menu("File").menu("Open").click();

}

The restart functionality cannot be tested with SWTBot because "Restart"
will just restart Eclipse with the exact same options and won't continue
a Test Suite.
If you want to run a sequence of tests separated by restart, this has to
be implemented in the way you run those tests (Tycho Surefire, Bash,
Ant...) to actually run sequentially different test suites.
Just let the test suite run and close by itself, without using Restart.
